Chapter 1 The Orphanage in North Hollywood

"Sorry, Lu Ming, I don't want to do this either. If we continue to be together, my dad..." The long-haired girl let go of the hand that she had held for ten years, walked to the distance without looking back, and finally disappeared.

"An Xin~"

The young man named Lu Ming murmured and opened the beer again. Several months have passed. Whenever he thinks of the breakup, he still can't stop tingling in his heart. After all, ten years of love!

In fact, he knew that this scene would happen sooner or later, but he was always illusory, but reality still pierced the bubble of fantasy.

He is an orphan who grew up hang out with a welfare home on the street. After graduating from junior high school, he became a film projectionist through self-study. After ten years of struggle, she became a well-known music producer. Their status is getting further and further away. One only knows how to be addicted to the movie in a daze, and the other is famous and makes money every day. It is normal to break up, isn’t it?

People who grew up in coldness and loneliness have lost the only light of dawn and can only rely on alcohol to numb their nerves.

When Lu Ming heard that he had a beer, he suddenly felt difficulty breathing and was weak all over. He couldn't help but think of alcohol allergies that he had not had in many years. The last attack almost killed him!

Is it going to end? His eyelids can no longer be lifted, but his heart is full of regret. I am also a marginal person in the entertainment industry, so why don’t I know how to work hard? If I can become a glorious big star, will all this happen?

...

“Wow~”

The baby's crisp cry sounded, and Lu Ming opened his eyes and discovered the fact that he was devastated. He turned into a baby, an abandoned baby lying alone at the gate of the welfare home!

Could it be...reborn? Back to being abandoned? Then can you show off your skills and start over again?

As soon as this thought arose in his mind, he felt dizzy and immediately realized that something was wrong. The baby's brain could not support him in thinking too many questions, and now he is lacking in oxygen.

Damn it! Are you going to die just after rebirth? Before he lost consciousness, he saw an old white lady picking him up.

A powerful man from heaven made a joke, although he became an abandoned child born in 1980 for the second time, the location changed from the ancient kingdom of the East to the North Hollywood Welfare House in Los Angeles.

According to the English of the flower carved on the necklace between the neck, he has a new name - Ryan Jenkins!

I became a little ghost? This is a reality that Lu Ming or Ryan must accept.

The life of the welfare home is cold and boring. Ryan always has a feeling of pain in his heart, which prompts him to learn all the knowledge he can access. Thanks to his extraordinary language talent in this life and the careful teaching of the old dean, he could already fluently listen, speak, read and write English at the age of four.

Staying in a welfare home was not a long-term solution, but he didn't know what to do, so he had to immerse himself in learning and reading as much as possible. Before he knew it, he read the books in the library several times.

This year, in order to obtain more funding, the Welfare House organized children over four to participate in the Halloween parade in Hollywood. It was not until this time that Ryan discovered that the famous Hollywood was just south of the Welfare House.

The moment I stepped onto the Avenue of Stars, the classic movies I had watched in my previous life and the English songs I heard immediately flashed into Ryan's mind, and it was as clear as if it was engraved in my memory.

The parade made him extremely clear. Over time, Ryan found that his body was much stronger than his peers, his thinking was extremely clear, he was particularly sensitive to music and rhythm, and he also had extraordinary ability to build pictures and words.

Although he didn't know whether he had any talent in acting, from the moment he opened his eyes, he was performing, first acting as a baby, then acting as a child, and in the future he would also perform as a teenager and a young man. Even if some people think he was a little weird, no one had ever doubted that performance has become his instinct.

Could it be that God heard the wish before his death in his previous life that he wanted me to roll in Hollywood? Ryan understood what the ** in his heart was - to become a dazzling superstar!

This is also good. Maybe you can see the stars I like most in my previous life and become friends with them?

Although Ryan knew that Hollywood was a real world of fame and fortune, not a dream theater, he still set a goal for himself that was out of reach, since he had lived a life of resurrection, he always had to realize some of the delusions of his previous life, right?

With the goal, Ryan became more active in studying, learning painting and music with volunteer art college students, and learning Chinese and Cantonese with Chinese staff - always making an excuse for learning Chinese.

In short, he learned everything related to art and tried to describe the pictures in his mind in words. After training repeatedly for two years, he gradually formed his own style and characteristics.

Dean Katy had noticed Ryan long ago and always thought he was the smartest child in the welfare home, but something strange was that no one wanted to adopt him, and he despised his character as being too withdrawn and weird.

Ryan was also a little moved. There were no shortage of millions or even millionaires among the orphans. He also fantasized about becoming a father-fighting clan in the future, but some things seemed to be destined at the moment of rebirth. He still lived here until he was six years old.

Dean Katie is Ryan's only reader. Perhaps because she is Jewish and Ryan has some Jewish characteristics, she only showed some surprise at the beginning and gradually got used to the existence of a genius child.

She collected all the works Ryan used to practice writing, picked out the best science fiction novels from them, and mailed them to an old friend of the magazine. Unexpectedly, these novels were published.

When Ryan saw the magazine handed over by the old dean, he realized that the hard work of the past few years has not been wasted. Let’s start for the future!

In addition to routine physical exercise and study time, Ryan focused on writing or plagiarism, and began to adapt some famous children's movies into novellas or short stories.

Novels and movies are different carriers. Changing movies into texts that can not only occupy creativity but also have no negative impact on the future. It takes some effort, but it does not cause too much trouble for him. With the help of Dean Katy, short and medium stories such as "Home Imperial" and "Toy Story" were successfully published. Ryan also received a royal fee, and the old dean also applied for a bank account for him.

These did not satisfy Ryan. He needed a heavyweight stepping stone. In the event of a bad future, he could knock on the door of Hollywood. He set his goal on a work that had a huge influence - "Jurassic Park"!

He had never read the original novel of "Jurassic Park" and could only be adapted based on the content of the movie. In order to meet his six-year-old age and identity, he placed the first protagonist on the little boy, not Dr. Grant.

Although there is a movie as a reference, in order to cover up, Ryan asked Dean Katie's help to collect a lot of dinosaurs and cloned materials. The novel with less than 250,000 words took nearly four months to complete it through repeated revisions.

Whether it was the beginning of writing or the final publication, the old dean helped a lot. This Jewish woman had surprising social relations.

In the early winter of 1986, after a few months of lukewarm popularity, the novel entered the top ten bestsellers in the United States, bringing Ryan a large royalty share.

Meanwhile, Dean Katie retired due to physical reasons. The newly appointed Dean is a black woman named Macy. Ryan keenly noticed that her eyes looked at the orphan were filled with disgust and greed.

After this fat president like a pig took office, the living standards of the welfare home plummeted, and it gradually became a normal state of food. Beatings, scolding, insults and other behaviors became commonplace. She even took advantage of the loopholes in the adoption system to get involved with some adoption middlemen and start the "adoption" business, and the orphans turned into human-shaped goods.

After reading a reply from the Alien magazine, the black dean targeted Ryan, especially after using his guardian's authority to search for his account, he was stunned by one of the strings of zeros.

Such a large sum of money actually belongs to a child. For her, why is it not a god-given opportunity?

Things were not as simple as she thought. Before leaving, the old dean Katie realized that the money might cause trouble. He specially entrusted his old friend to find a reliable lawyer for Ryan. It was almost impossible to get the money without disturbing the lawyer. The best way was to gain Ryan's absolute trust and support.

Unfortunately, she didn't understand that in Ryan's body, there was a soul whose intelligence was only higher than hers. Her methods of pleasing, tempting, deceiving, etc. were as ridiculous as a circus clown in his eyes. However, Ryan's age and body that were not commensurate with wisdom determined that he had no actual ability to resist.

Hunger, scolding, cursing or even beating may make other children afraid, but Ryan has never been afraid. He experienced more severe tests than this in his childhood in his previous life, and he survived even more difficult things.

Dean Black Pig simply locked him in a remote room and asked two black helpers to take turns to monitor him. As long as he did not surrender, he would not be able to gain freedom.

Time slipped into 1987, and Ryan ushered in his second seven-year-old. His sky was already covered by dark clouds. He began to look for opportunities. Waiting and being merciless was not the fate he wanted. Although he had left the welfare home in the past seven years, he could count it with one hand, but he still wanted to rush out of the cage. Only the vast sky outside could withstand his soaring wings.

With continuous efforts, the door that locked the sky was finally removed by him. Taking advantage of the opportunity of the black helper going to the bathroom, he escaped from the welfare home.
